I'm allergic to allergies

Even using a neti pot fails at this time of year.

So, who else just loves summer but hates the effects?

Off to nap ...

You must have it really bad. The neti pot (as gross and uncomfortable as it is) really helped me out. Another thing that helped was and still is a little cognac in the evening.

I love the heat, which my wife hates so while I am pretending to be vacationing in Cuba she is complaining every minute.
